DIN-KXI

KNX Secure IP Gateway, DIN Rail Mount

The DIN-KXI is an IP-based KNX interface that allows a 4-Series® Control System to communicate with a KNX system. It is capable of addressing and controlling up to 1,000 datapoints and receives power over the KNX bus. The DIN-KXI can also be used as a programming interface for KNX devices using ETS5 and ETS6 software.

This section provides the following information:

CRESTRON-M202234003-DIN-Rail-Mount-fig-4

Hang the DIN-KXI on the top of the DIN rail.
- When the DIN-KXI is mounted, the certificate label with the serial number, MAC address, and KNX certificate number may not be visible. A duplicate of the KNX certificate label (2062600) is included that can be placed inside the enclosure.
Press the bottom toward the DIN rail and snap it into place.

Remove from a DIN Rail

To remove the DIN-KXI DIN Rail:

Turn off power to the device.
Remove all connections from the DIN-KXI.
Use a small, flat-head screwdriver to pull the DIN rail release tab down.
Tilt the bottom of the DIN-KXI away from the bottom of the DIN rail and then remove the device.

Wiring

NOTE

When wiring the DIN-KXI, connect the device to the KNX bus that uses a KNX power supply.

KNX Bus Connection

To wire the KNX bus, connect the black (-) and red (+) terminals to the KNX bus

LAN Connection

To connect to the local LAN, connect an ethernet cable to the RJ-45 port.

Configuration

Interface to KNX

Acquire with KNX Secure

Use the info on the KNX label to acquire the DIN-KXI. The Factory Key (FSDK) for the device is on the DIN-KXI label and also on the spare label that is provided. On the label, the Factory Key (FSDK) is labeled Cert.

NOTE: When the configuration is changed, the settings must be downloaded onto the DIN-KXI. For details, refer to ETS Software documentation.
For additional information about KNX Secure and using ETS software, visit www.knx.org, support.knx.org, or Adding device certificates.

To add the KNX Secure device using ETS software:

Assign a password to the project in ETS software before adding the DIN-KXI to the project. A secure device cannot be added to a project that is not password protected.
Find the DIN-KXI using the Online Catalog that is available in ETS software version 5.6.5 or later. For earlier versions of ETS software or when the Online Catalog is not enabled, use the offline catalog available from the DIN-KXI product page.
Add the DIN-KXI to ETS software. The Factory Key can be entered on the Security tab or before downloading the device. Scan the QR code on the label using the device running the ETS software or enter the certificate number (Cert) manually.
In the Parameters tab, select General settings and then configure the following:
- Prog. mode on device front: To allow use of the Prog. mode button on the front of the device, select Enabled.
- Manual operation on device: To allow use of the CONN BAOS and CONN TUNN buttons to enable manual operation on the front of the device, select Enabled with a time limit from the drop-down menu.
- Object server: To use a secure connection to the Object server, from Communication select Secure, in the Password field enter a password, and then from the Object server port dropdown menu enter an object server port number. Configure the DIN KXI IO module in the SIMPL program using the same settings. For configuration information, refer to the Help (F1) file (PDF) that is provided for the module.
In the Parameters tab, select Datapoints and then configure the Datapoints in ETS software and the SIMPL program. For details, refer to Datapoint Configuration on page 20.

Datapoint Configuration

Configure up to 1,000 datapoints in the system using ETS software and SIMPL modules.

NOTE

When the configuration is changed, the settings must be downloaded onto the DIN-KXI. For details, refer to ETS Software documentation.

ETS Software Configuration

Each data point gets a group address, in order to send to the bus. More than one group address can be set for one object.
To access the datapoints, go to the Parameters tab and then select Datapoints.

DIN-KXI Datapoints Tab

CRESTRON-M202234003-DIN-Rail-Mount-fig-8

For each datapoint that is used in the system, configure these settings:

Datapoint number (1 – 1000): The object id number. The datapoints are listed in groups of 10.
Datapoint type: Select the type of object from the drop-down menu. If the datapoint is not used, select Disabled. The SIMPL modules provide control of 1 Bit, 2 Bit, 4 Bit, 8 Bit, 1 Byte, 2 Byte, 3 Byte, 4 Byte, 6 Byte, and 14 Byte datapoint types.
Description: Enter a short description (30 character maximum) of the datapoint. The description is transferred to the device when Download of data point description option is enabled.

NOTE

To utilize polling, select the Read option in ETS software.

SIMPL Configuration

For each datapoint configured in ETS software, use SIMPL to configure the Crestron control system to interface with the KNX system. In SIMPL, go to Crestron Modules > System Control and then use the DIN KXI modules.
Each Crestron module allows specific KNX commands or signals to be sent or read. One module can provide control, feedback, or both. Do not add multiple modules for the same object to get control and feedback using two modules.
